Hi All
I have downloaded the boot1.fs from ftp server. I use rawrite.exe and =
write the image onto the floppy. There is an error message saying sector =
could not find. I think what happend is that boot1.fs is too big for the =
1.44Mb floppy. I have tried a couple of time and with different =
rawrite.exe downloaded from ftp.=20
Upon checking achieve on port-i386, it was discussed before. However, =
there was no answer to this problem. Eventually I went back to my netbsd =
box and dd the image to a floppy and everything works fine.
My question is whether the image in fact is too large for a 1.44M floppy =
and in the case dos system it won't work??
